1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Introduction: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) was first detected in Spain in ticks collected from red deer in southwestern Cáceres. Since then, this region, established as endemic, has been the focus of several surveillance studies. However, updated data on viral circulation in this area remain limited. Materials and Methods: We conducted a retrospective surveillance study to assess the presence and genetic diversity of CCHFV in ticks collected in central and southern Cáceres over multiple years (2017 and 2020-2024). A total of 3,183 ticks, grouped into 1,569 pools, were collected from wild ungulates, livestock, domestic animals and vegetation, and analyzed by two PCR methods. Positive pools were characterized by Sanger sequencing. Results: CCHFV was exclusively detected in Discussion: The detection of CCHFV in ticks collected over multiple years supports the sustained circulation of the virus in southwestern Cáceres. Our findings also reinforce the key role of
